What You Do:

1. Color the bottom of each paper plate. (We found it easier to color them before cutting, but do what works best for you.)

2. Use your hand as a template to draw the outline of the #1 hand sign and cut out.

3. Use this as a template to trace and cut out the back side of the puppet. (Remember to flip it over and trace the opposite side, or your puppet will not fit together properly.)

4. Write/draw your team name, mascot, motivational sayings or other decorations.
